Sewage Croup Discusses Water Supply The commissioner of the United States Bureau of Reclamation said at Texas A&.M College, that the solution of the water supply pro blem in Texas will come from an overall, state-wide and not piece meal consideration. Speaking at the opening session of the Texas Water and Sewage Works- Association 5-day meeting being held at A&M, Commissioner W. A. Dexheimcr said that “the in dustrial economy, of Texas is in strong ascendancy. The limit to which it, can expand is largely the limit that you impose upon it through the quantity.of water you provide for such expansion. “Irrigated agriculture, which produces 40 per cent of the gross Texas agricultural income from harvested lands,” the commissioner declared, “is reaching a peak.” Commissioner Dexheimer said that a decline is inevitable unless remedial steps are taken -and soon.. “Decline of agriculture that will accompany expansion of industrial activity can be avoided through effective development of water re sources,” he said. . Texas is one of the few remain ing areas with large quantities of undeveloped resources which the nation will need in the decades to come, Commissioner Deheimer said. “It simultaneously presents the Texan with an unsurpassed ?conomic opportunity. It is well to note that economic opportunities are unusually bright in the rapidly . expanding pcrto-chcmical industry 5 nd in irrigated agriculture. Both (Ull require large new regulated (cater supplies. These' circum- itanccs fully justify continued federal investment in Texas water projects where such projects are beyond the capabilities of the state or local bodies. Family Favorites By MRS.
